chanoyu is a blog about the japanese tea ceremony. In japan the japanese tea ceremony is trying to recover from a popularity drop. younger generations are becomming increasingly more interested in foreign cultures and tend to forget about their own. Me, as a foreigner, her in japan, have be come very interested in this ancient and traditional way of preparing tea for guests in a ceremonial way. The japanese tea ceremony is more than just preparing a froth of green tea for the guests. for the true tea master prepares the matcha from his heart and not from the mind. here in japan, the japanese tea ceremony is a life style, an approach to life, with a breeze of meditation and contemplation. |
